Hidden Control Arms for Shutter System

Get the clearest possible view from your louvered shutters by building them with hidden control arms instead of the traditional center-mounted control arms. These thin metal strips mount to the ends of the louvers, tucked neatly out of sight for maximum visibility when the louvers are opened. Made of stainless steel so it's unaffected by window condensation and moisture.

Sold in 54-5/16" lengths in two spacings: one for 2-1/2" and another for 3-1/2" wide louvers. Cut to length as needed. Works in tandem with our Hidden Control Arm Jig and Rockler Shutter System Templates.
